PETA Urges Ben And Jerry's To Use Human Milk
PETA has sent a letter to ice cream makers Ben & Jerry's, urging them to replace cow's milk in their products with human breast milk. PETA officials say moving to human breast milk would lessen the suffering of cows on factory farms and benefit human health. "The fact that human adults consume huge quantities of dairy products made from milk that was meant for a baby cow just doesn't make sense," says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. Counting the Swiss guy who wanted to use breast milk at his restaurant, this is the second breast-milk-in-our-food story in a week. In case the folks at Ben & Jerry's need help coming up with names, may I suggest Boobalicious or Mammary Row.
But, I'd sign up to be an at-the-source QA tester...
Generally, bash is superior to python in those environments where python is not installed.
So instead of making baby cows suffer from lack of milk, PETA wants to make baby humans to suffer because the mother is eigther poor or greedy to sell her milk for dairy products.
I never got why PETA consider animals as higher beings than humans.
Lets save the cows! screw the humans! /sarcasm
DON'T PANIC.
Okay, honest question for people who support this: How would you plan on physically, socially, and economically plan on doing this? I mean, it seems like there'd be way too many hurtles to cross before one could seriously suggest something like this, physically, because, although I'm not an expert in the field, I wouldn't think that a human would have the same output as a cow, socially, because there would be many groups opposed to the idea, and financially, because I don't think a women will work for the same wages a cow takes. So, if anyone here really supports this, I'd be sincerely interested in hearing why you support it (and no, won't someone please think of the cows is not a good reason) and more importantly how you would hope to make mass produced human milk a reality.
